    Need a little push in the right direction

    Okay, that makes sense. Thanks a lot! How does the first answer look? I feel like I did it wrong. Is it safe to assume constant pressure, or should I be trying to solve this some other way? Thanks again for your help.

    Need a little push in the right direction

    I have two questions. First: a coffe-cup clorimeter, 125 mL of a 2.75 M solution of silver nitrate at 25.00 degrees C is comined with 350 mL of a 4.00 M strontium chloride solution, aslo at 25.00 C. The temperature of the final solution is 32.15 degrees C. If the density of the final...

    What is the solution to this separable differential equation?

    Homework Statement Solve the following differntial equation Homework Equations (x+y-4)dy - (2x-y+1)dy = 0 EDIT: Oops, it should be (x+y-4)dy - (2x-y+1)dx = 0 The Attempt at a Solution I integrated both sides and ended up with: [y(2x +y-8)]/2 = X^2 + x(1-y) + c Did I solve this...

    How to solve the given differential equation

    Can someone give me some help, or at least tell me if I'm on the right track with this? Heres what I was given: 4y'' - 4y' - 3y=0 y(0)=1 y'(0)=5 Heres what I did: (sorry about the c1 and c2, I don't know how to make them show up as subsript) 4(r^2) - 4r - 3 = 0 r = 3/2 r=-1/2...

    Solving Equations: Choosing the Right Method | Homogeneous Equation Example

    Yes, it looked like the first one, which is the same as y=7*sqrt[-1/(7[ln(t)+c])], correct? What I did was end up with -[(t^3)/(t^4)]dt=[(y^-6)/(y^2)]dy after seperating I then integrated and got -ln(t)+c=-1/(7y^7), and then solved for y. For the other equation, dy/dx - y/x =...

    Solving Equations: Choosing the Right Method | Homogeneous Equation Example

    Ok, so I separated them and integrated and ended up with: y=[7^(6/7)]/(7(ln(t)-c)) Does this look right? Thanks, Dao Tuat

    Solving Equations: Choosing the Right Method | Homogeneous Equation Example

    Could somone help me out and tell me what method to use to solve: (t^3)(y^2)dt + (t&4)(y^-6)dy = 0 Also, the equation dy/dx - y/x = (x^2)sin2x is homogeneous, right? Thanks, Dao Tuat

    Trying To Learn Differential Equations

    Thanks for your help. I would also like to say sorry if I seemed a bit rude. The only reason I didn't put out any work was because its so hard for my to type it all out. Anyways, here's what I have: For the first problem, I got it to dy/dx = y/x + (sqrt((x^3)-(y^2)))/x and then set v = y/x. I...

    Trying To Learn Differential Equations

    Show work? Perhaps you misunderstood, I am asking how to do these problems. I would like someone who has some free time and wouldn't mind helping me out, to work them out for me - or at least get me started. It's been a few years since I've had a class like this so I'm a bit rusty. As I said...

    Trying To Learn Differential Equations

    I was taking a class, but got deployed before finishing and now I am trying to do it on my own so that I can take it online and finish it fairly fast once I get back home. I just received my book in the mail from back home not too long ago and I've been doing a little whenever I have a chance...
